Mariah Carey

But even by her super-high standards the latest reports of her superstar behaviour will take some beating. An insider told the New York Post this week that the warbler had thrown a hissy fit and stormed out of Barack Obama’s 20 January Presidential Inauguration ceremony after discovering she would be sat with other celebrities instead of standing with the president on the podium. "Mariah was in the VIP area, where every celebrity, like Jon Bon Jovi, Mary J. Blige, Alicia Keys and Bruce Springsteen, was seated," a source claimed. "But somehow she thought she\'d be up with the Obama family. When she realised she wasn\'t, she bailed." Sadly, a rep for Mariah has spoken out against the claims. “When she and Nick arrived in their section, she was surrounded by fans, but unfortunately it caused too much of a ruckus and it became a little unsafe,” the spokesperson explained. “She was then escorted to safety by police.” If it only it was true!

Catherine Zeta-Jones

Also, I love to eat an apple after a meal, just to cleanse my teeth - they always look polished afterwards.” And the tips didn’t stop there. “The juice or pulp of strawberries contains malic acid which serves as an astringent and can lighten surface stains,” she revealed. “Pineapples work the same way. And I do condition my hair with honey and beer. I smell like the bottom of a beer barrel for days afterwards but it\'s very good for the hair.”

Matt Damon

Whatever you do, never compare Jason Bourne, his famous CIA maverick character, to our own James Bond, he won’t like it. A Miami Herald journalist made that very mistake this week. “They could never make a James Bond movie like any of the Bourne films,\'\' Damon ranted. “Because Bond is an imperialist, misogynist sociopath who goes around bedding women and swilling martinis and killing people. He\'s repulsive.” Miaow!

Kate Winslet

Kate bagged another award this week for her role in the Reader, this time it was Best Supporting Actress award at the Screen Actor’s Guild awards. The BAFTA’s and Oscars are still to come, who’d bet on anyone else?

Eamonn Holmes

celebrity gossip,celebrity news,celebrity pictures,rihanna,celebrity quote Eamonn Holmes We agree that a firmer hand is needed with celebrities but someone should warn Eamonn Holmes not to be harsh after the presenter this week said he’d "slap" Rihanna if she were his daughter. “I find the entourages that some people come with, especially the Americans, really pathetic," Holmes told Star magazine. “Rihanna, for example, is a beautiful girl, but if she was your daughter, you\'d give her a slap and tell her to wise up. She is surrounded by people who treat her like a little flower.” Woah, there Eamonn.

Ricky Gervais

Testicles are on the large size though! I\'d look weird with a foot long k**b wouldn\'t I? It\'d be ridiculous, also I\'d faint if I got an erection as all the blood would be in there, its fine, its fine, really its average."

Alesha Dixon

Alesha, who has kept a dignified silence since her split with ex-husband MC Harvey over his alleged affair with Javine, said she could never consider flirting with someone who already had a partner. “I don\'t have the tendency to look at guys who have girlfriends,” she told Digital Spy. “If I know someone\'s in a relationship I just don\'t look at them like that out of principle."

Russell Brand

One person who could learn some lessons from Ricky Gervais is fellow comedian Russell Brand who this week he sleeps with up to three women a day. “Work out how many days and, here\'s a simple rule, triple it," he told GQ magazine when asked for his monthly average. “I love it. I\'ve a very addictive personality, and it\'s very easy for me to get compulsive about anything sensual. “Sometimes I think, \'Come on, have a day off\'.” Believable? No. Funny? Yes!
